Remi Surutu loses daughter

He wrote:” Rest in Peace AYO. May God grant your mum @therealremisurutu the strength to bear this loss. She did all she can, omg! Aunty Remi, please take heart. Seeing your lifeless body now caused me more pain and it is because I value the friendship we shared. Journey well. In serious pain now.”
How God gave me back my late daughter — Remi Surutu
Some years back, following the birth of her granddaughter, Remi Surutu, had revealed how God compensated her for her dead child.
In an interview with Saturday Beats, Surutu expressed excitement that her late daughter is back to her through her granddaughter.
She noted how her granddaughter shares a striking resemblance with her late daughter.
For the then-new grandma, there was no more weeping for her as God had compensated her for her loss.
She said, “Words cannot describe the joy I am experiencing. I am now a grandmother. My second and only surviving daughter delivered a baby girl last Thursday. I believe my late daughter (firstborn) is back with me. There is no more weeping for me. The baby is my late daughter’s carbon copy. The emptiness of these past years has disappeared and I feel so fulfilled. I never knew I would become a grandmother this soon. My daughter is a career-oriented person. She is not really marriage-centric. So, when things began to fall into place, it came as a surprise. I know God ‘spoke to her’ for me. As a matter of fact, my daughter and her spouse told me they were not ready for a child. The only ceremony we have had was the introduction— a formal way of introducing both families to one another. We had planned their wedding for December.”
